Guest guest Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 If anybody want this on a word doc they can email me at health and request it. I welcome feedbackon it! Pro or con! You Don’t Have To Be Wealthy To Eat Healthy! I wrote this as so many people mistakenly assume it costs more to eat healthy. It does NOT and should even cost less! It should not only cost less, but take less time and taste better IF done right. Organic food MAY cost more (not always), but it is higher in nutritional value so you will be full with less! So you actually save $! 1.. Fasting-If one fasts one day per week that alone will reduce food costs 15%! 2.. Gardening & Sprouting-Just happens to be the most healthy AND the least expensive! When doing either use ONLY organic seeds! 3.. Vegetables & Beans-For store bought food they also are healthiest & least expensive! 4.. Organic Food-One will consume less resulting in smaller portions as you will be satisfied since the body will recognize the higher nutritional content of organic food. 5.. Chewing thoroughly & eating slowly-As the old saying goes, “chew your liquids & drink your food!” By doing that along with eating slower you will digest better & consume less. 6.. Reduce or eliminate animal sources-Animal source foods are the most expensive and by reducing or eliminating them a considerable amount can be saved. As is stated in the “TBOGH!” ONLY consume animal products IF they are the way God intended (see “TBOGH!” info to obtain below) and limit to 3-6 animal portions week/under 5% of caloric intake (Proverbs 23:20). 7.. Reduce or eliminate grains-Attempts to reduce “Global Warming” have greatly increased grain prices. 8.. Bargain-When shopping at Farmers Markets bargain with the farmers (when nobody can hear you). 9.. Other ways-Of course there are MANY other non-health related ways of eating healthy & inexpensively such as not/reducing eating out, eating food the way God made it, not the way humans have altered it, using coupons, buying wholesale/in quantity, eating seasonally, etc. etc. 10.. Co-Op-Start your own produce co-op! For this article use this link http://www.mercola.com/2005/feb/16/organic_food.htm “Your Family Could Be Eating Organic Food for the Same Price as Processed Foods -- or Less” http://www.mercola.com/2006/aug/17/how_to_get_inexpensive_organic_locally-gr own_vegetables.htm “How to get locally grown, inexpensive organic vegetables.” Remember to shop salesonially! Some examples: Emerald Valley brand Organic Humus (all flavors) regular price $2.99. On sale for $2.00 20% off store coupon brought it down to $1.50 Used coupon for 55 cents which brought it down to 95 cents! Annie’s brand Certified Organic Macaroni & Cheese regular price $1.79. On sale for $1.49 20% off store coupon brought it down to $1.20. Used coupon for 50 cents which brought it down to 70 cents. Santa Cruz brand Organic juices (MANY types of flavors) regular price $3.39 On sale for $2.50. 20% off store coupon brought it down to $2.00. Used coupon for 75 cents which brought down to $1.25! There are MANY other examples of this! Buy things on clearance at the Vitamin Shoppe! All Vitamin Shoppes have a clearance area (as most any kind of store has) where items are around 75% off.
